Open House

Open House for Armstrong Elementary is September 14, and September 28-30 for Mill Pond.
I will not be able to attend Armstrong's, yet there will be plenty of artwork hanging in the hallways for you to enjoy! I will be at Boston University for my art education grad school class that evening.
I will be attending Mill Pond's open house on September 29th, I hope to see you then.
We also have Arts in Common on October 2nd. There will be music, artwork for viewing and for sale. So come join the fun, located at the Baystate Commons in Westborough.

Welcome 2010-2011

Welcome back Westborough students!

School officially starts September 1st, 2010.

Open House for Armstrong Elementary is September 14th and Mill Pond is September 28th-30th. I hope to see you at one or both nights this fall. I can't wait to meet and talk about our art curriculum with parents and students on those evenings.

Summer 2010

Today is the last day before summer break. I hope all of you artists out there continue making art and enjoying the warm weather! Stay tuned for more work from my students and myself.
See you all in September!

Spring is here!

Spring has arrived at Armstrong Elementary! The kindergarten classes have just finished up creating lily pads after studying Claude Monet and his lily pad ponds. The students used cool color paint to make the lily, then cut and glued a warm color flower in the center. Next, they glued the lily to the center of the class 'pond'. There are 5 ponds currently hanging all around school.

Art show taken down

Today we took down the spring art show for 2010. June will be Mill Pond's month for displaying artwork on the 3rd floor of the Forbes Building.
In the meantime, 6th grade has been printing shell images cut from linoleum, 5th grade is drawing the interior of the art room, the 4th grade has been finishing up some Australian Aborigine bark paintings, 3rd grade has finished their landscape paintings, 2nd grade made clay pizza (to be displayed in the glass case at Armstrong), 1st grade is currently finishing their self portraits, and Kindergarten has been making Claude Monet water lily ponds.
It has been a busy spring, next week will be some images of these new projects!

Armstrong Elementary's Fine Arts Night

Armstrong's Fine Arts Night was April 13th, 2010. Here is one of our budding artists standing in front of her artwork at the show.

Thank you to all who came by and looked at the work on display, it was a great night because of you.

Mill Pond Spring Arts Night at the Forbes Building

Mill Pond Spring Arts Night, April 6, 2010, was a success! Many of our students and their families came through the show to see their work, to take photos, and to watch the bands perform.

Thank you Westborough families for a wonderful evening!
